Product Description

Versatile thermal shorts for cycling

warm, windproof and water-repellent

completely waterproof at the back

eco-friendly production

The Minaki Shorts III are the perfect companion for mountain and touring bikers who need some extra warmth in cool weather. The lightweight hybrid shorts made from eco-friendly material can be worn as a thermal layer over cycling pants. At the front, PrimaLoft® insulation at the thighs provides excellent protection. The robust back is completely waterproof. Side zips with a mesh lining make putting them on a breeze and also serve as ventilation. This product is made with eco-friendly, water repellent Eco Finish and is manufactured without the use of fluorocarbons (PFC). In addition, the VAUDE Green Shape label stands for environmentally friendly, functional products made from sustainable materials.

The fabric’s extra dense construction (achieved by weave, finish or processing) makes it 80% windproof. What’s left of the wind is a pleasant, cool breath of fresh air offering unbeatable breathability. This technology is a great choice for windy weather conditions in high-motion mountain and bike sports.
